I liked that little tease as well. Overall looks pretty good. I’m sort of torn about the Rhino’s suit though, I know the comic version wouldn’t work at all for film, but the whole Ironman suit thing doesn’t feel right either, at least from the brief shot it got in the trailer.

Don’t worry it’s just a prototype it’s not the real rhino suit it’s more like a mechanized robot war machine and besides I heard hes not really going to be a villain in this movie but in the next film he’s gonna be he’s gonna be a cross species villain he gots some surume that’ll turn him into a humanoid rhino you know like from the ASM game so hes kinda like the original rhino but instead of wearing a rhinoceros suit hes gonna be a human rhinoceros

that’s how all trailers are now-a-days dude. they spoil the whole freaking movie.

I was talking in another thread the other day about there should be a trailer law that only permits you to show footage from act 1 and possibly act 2 in your trailer. It would make movie-going more fun and unpredictable. Or go the Hitchcock route and just have a clip that teases the movie, or when Pixar started and their trailers would have new footage that wasn’t even in the end product movie just to give an idea of what the movie is about.

It didnt really spoil anything. The only things this trailer told us are:
1. there are 3 villains
2. Peter’s still struggling to find out who he is
3. the Osborns are in it
4. There are a loot of easter eggs
It doesnt really give away any major plot details either.

1. Peter discovers the underground lab that his dad had
2. What the Rhino really even looks like
3. Spidey’s epic killer finishing move with slamhandling the manhole cover into Rhino. (Unless of course this does nothing to the Rhino at all and the pure epicness that precedes the lack of effect is a comedic point, which would be great)
4. The epic, absolutely epic ending battle against Electro. As awesome and glad as I am to have already seen it, if I could erase it and see it only in the movie, I would. It’s like if they showed the best parts of the final battle from SW: I (Darth Maul) before we got a chance to see it in the movie. They need to foreshadow the showdowns, not show the showdowns themselves.
5. Found out that Parker’s being tracked by OsCorp, which isn’t a terrible spoiler, but that all depends on what the story is.

So I’m defining spoilers as being that they reveal things that would have been exciting new discoveries when watching scenes for the first time during the movie.

Action scenes seem pretty childish. I think cgi needs work. This looks like a console gameplay sometimes. I really really hope this is going to turn out ok but this trailer doesn’t promise much merit rather than a villain fest. And from Hans Zimmer I expect a lot more. But fingers crossed…

By console gameplay I meant that the visual effects department should have done better than this. The first shot is awesome and I love how the suit behaves under different circumstances because now I can believe that Peter made it. Still, when he swings across the city he looks like a rubber doll. Don’t get me wrong, I really want this to be great but excluding a few nice and one great shot I don’t get much. I remember when the Man of Steel trailer came out I felt it was fantastic. The music complimented the picture well (it was taken from the lord of the rings if i’m not mistaken) and you could see from the visuals that the outcome would be something different and potentially good. ((And I hated Superman before)) While I’m not saying that spider-man should be a dark toned thriller titled Wall Crawler, I believe that a character of such a history should get special treatment. So as I said, fingers crossed and may the vfx guys somewhat alter the effects.

Probably not if it’s Giammati.. I get the feeling almost all villains will be mech-suits in this world…

I’d grown kinda attached to the idea of Harry becoming Venom, mainly cause I’d love to see Dane DeHaan as a character with a potential anti-hero storyline. Guess that”s not happening and he’ll just go full on psycho. Foxx’s constant raves about DeHaan make more sense now.

Just when I thought things couldn’t get any worse than the Lizard, we get “mech-rhino,” the slightly green-tinted evil elf-goblin, emo-Harry, and electro-Fox. This looks absolutely horrible! What a f’ing disaster this Marc Webb is. Nobody wants to see your “interpretation” of Spider-man. Just visually bring to life what we loved about the comics. Or better yet, go away. And why is this called “Amazing” Spiderman and not Ultimate, since it clearly has nothing to do with the amazing Spiderman storyline. This is a disaster. As a life-long Spiderman fan I have to say I’m out. I will say, though, that at least they got the costume right this time. I’m curious to see how they explain away that abomination from the first piece of crap movie.

1000% Agree Sir^^
The first “Amazing Spiderman” was very bad but the mainstream ate it up, Unfortunately we are in the minority. If you don’t agree that’s fine but if you’re interested go watch the EWW The Amazing Spiderman youtube video, they highlight some of the major problems I had with the first installment.
Don’t get me wrong I wanted this franchise to be awesome but turning your brain off shouldn’t be a requirement of entertainment.

Im curious, have you this film already? Unless you have already, you should keep your ignorant comments to yourself about a film you havent even watched yet. See the movie, then you can complain about how “horrible” it is. And if you can do better, you should make a spiderman movie.

Who says nobody wants Marc Webb’s interpretation?, that is a bit of a silly statement.., I think you will find that plenty of people want, and will go and see Webb’s iteration of the character…again, as they did for the first..

Yup. The number of positive comments in this thread alone out weighs the negative with ease. Funny how this guy has nothing better to do than to comment on a sequel of a movie he clearly didn’t like lol. Sad.

This looks pretty good, and above all else feels like a Spider-Man comic book brought to the screen. It looks like a Saturday morning cartoon with a movie aesthetic, and that’s a good thing.
The most impressive visual effect still is Emma Stone’s cuteness.

I find it fun to see everyone’s reaction. How can something look so incredibly awesome (“comic book film of the year”) and also so horrible? Ultimately, it doesn’t matter because the film will change everyone’s opinion one way or another.

I can’t say that I’m crazy about Rhinox or Troll-Doll-Goblin. Hopefully that’s like, a halfway transformation and he will be more Gobliny later or at least in the third movie and maybe Rhino will get a sleeker suit. I’m more interested in the lead up to Sinister Six than the movie itself.

Looks interesting. Im hoping Deehan’s goblin gets more of a different look since the whole “super serum makes me stronger and my hair style change” thing has been done. I hope he gets maybe some scaly skin or something. Atleast he has the full hover glider rather than a sweet back to the future hover board.

The CGI does still need some polishing, which im sure will happen, bc it does look alittle like a videogame at the moment.

I think it’s more the style than the actual quality of the CGI, well from what I see. The last 15 seconds, while it definitely doesn’t look ultra-realistic, it still looks pretty cool and works for me. Though without a doubt they’re still working on the effects, I wonder what the final product will look like, especially on blu ray.

green goblin’s hair and face look…like something rushed in the last 100m of the run… electro seem’s dumber than rhino… and rhino’s costume is all tech….overall it looks okay to me ( actually i can’t wait to see it).. and i can look away from that if the story and acting goes the right way… LOVE the new costume… love the idea of the movie…. would also love to see spidey ( maybe in the next movies, due to him growing up and growing stronger) pack on say..5-6 more pounds of muscle.. rounder shoulders, bigger calves and an overall tighter look of his outfit, because even in the comics, him being skinny, he still looked damn athletic and had really good shape

Wow. I have been dumping on this since the casting and plot leaked out. I thought it was going to be a disjointed mess, ala Spidey 3. I must admit that it appears that I was wrong. This trailer looks pretty darn good.

As you can see, the battle between Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) and Max Dillon/Electro (Jamie Foxx) is almost a footnote in the first theatrical preview, with the main attraction being what Pete uncovers about his long-gone father’s (Campbell Scott) research for Oscorp Industries – and what the return of Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan) heralds for our intrepid web-slinging hero.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a proper Spider-Man story without dealing with Pete’s attempts to juggle the responsibilities of his everyday life with being a superhero and having to constantly deal with new threats, be they glorified lab experiments gone (Wrong? Right?) or Russian Mafia enforcers (Paul Giamatti) wielding machines guns and high-tech Rhino robot suits. No wonder his girlfriend Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone) acts casual about the police raining gunfire down on Pete; by his standards, that’s practically a slow day at work.

Indeed, as the sequel’s co-screenwriter Alex Kurtzman previously explained, the second installment is not only focused on expanding the series’ mythos, but also probing deeper into Peter’s issues about his past, which were left (intentionally) unresolved in the first movie. If Kurtzman and co-writers Roberto Orci (Star Trek Into Darkness) and Jeff Pinkner (Fringe) prove able to tie all these elements together, then Amazing Spider-Man 2 could be quite the satisfying comic book movie sequel (and, dare I say, maybe the best Spider-Man film released to date).

Director Marc Webb, on his end, looks to have delivered a superhero movie that is bigger and better than his previous entry in the genre on seemingly every level (storytelling, acting, visual style, etc.). Most importantly, he seems to have gotten a better handle on how to blend the human core of the film – Pete’s quest to find a sense of identity and deal with life as a young adult – with the requisite 3D effects and blockbuster spectacle, compared to his work on the first Amazing Spider-Man installment.

Plus, the best may be yet to come, as certain Easter Eggs in the trailer (Who else caught the Vulture wings and Doc Ock’s arms in the Oscorp hallway?) allude to more exciting developments in the future. On that note: those “rumors” about a Sinister Six villain team-up somewhere down the line are starting to look more like fact, at this point…
